FAQ

Common questions about BYOA, answered plainly

Does BYOA cost anything extra?

No. BYOA is included in your existing LuxGov plan. You pay separately for your own AI platform subscription (Copilot, ChatGPT Plus/Team, etc.), not to LuxGov.

Can I connect Claude Desktop or ChatGPT's built-in connector feature?

Not today. Both require the real MCP protocol (JSON-RPC), and LuxGov's current implementation is a REST API, not that protocol. See the AI Boundary Guide for the full explanation. ChatGPT users can still connect through a Custom GPT Action instead.

What can my AI actually see?

Project status, status reports, evidence tied to a specific clause, project context (delivery method, building type), and conflict information (which currently returns an honest "not yet available" answer). Nothing else, and never anything that lets it change or delete data.

Does LuxGov see what I ask my AI?

LuxGov only sees which specific tool your AI calls and what data it requests, for example which project, never your original question or your AI's final answer.

Where is my data processed once my AI has it?

Once your AI assistant receives information from LuxGov, it leaves LuxGov's sovereign storage environment and is subject to your AI provider's own data handling. If you have jurisdiction-specific data residency obligations beyond what LuxGov's storage provides, confirm your AI provider's processing location before connecting.

Can my AI upload documents or trigger an audit?

No. MCP access is read-only in its current phase. It cannot upload files, trigger analysis, or modify anything in LuxGov.

Is this a compliance certification tool?

No. LuxGov provides access to evidence-derived information. It does not provide compliance approval, certification, or a legal opinion — a licensed reviewer or certifier makes that determination.

How many requests can I make?

It depends on your plan: Trial 10/min, Standard 30/min, Professional 60/min, Enterprise 120/min.

What if I lose my key?

Keys are shown once, at generation. If you lose it, revoke it and generate a new one — there's no way to retrieve the old value.

Is setup really as easy as five minutes?

No, and we'd rather tell you that up front. Every platform tested against LuxGov so far needed at least one real fix along the way (a disconnected tool, a field-hijack bug, a wrong file format). See the Troubleshooting Guide before you start.

Who do I contact if something isn't working?

Check the Troubleshooting Guide first. If your issue isn't listed, contact LuxGov support with your platform name and the exact error you're seeing.
